This is the most significant take-away of the whole process. Sent via BTownBanners Mobile

Bradley is an embarrassment. I haven't seen a decent international match from him yet. Is his MLS play that stellar?

I let mine sit in the basement because I couldn't throw it away, even though it does taste like cough syrup. After 5 years, in a bit of a desperate evening, I broke back into it. It was awesome! So, stick it in a dark, cool spot for a few years and see what happens. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BtownBanners mobile app

Headline may be misleading, just sayin ...

It's the hype, all the hype

1) Consistent, effective style play on both offense and defense with the ability to do so at any pace or location 2) Adaption to circumstance, whether that is maximizing player strengths or countering in game adjustments 3) Build a stable roster that is able to, or preferably taught to, conduct items 1 and 2 without an excess of off-the-court issues Candidates: Brad Stevens Brad Stevens Brad Stevens

I don't know if it is good this year, or even better, but Crean's substitutions are definitely different. He still obsesses with players coming out on a "good note", and I think this is mostly detrimental. But, as others have mentioned, he's finally started to use the bench to control poor play more effectively. My biggest concern is Crean's complete disregard for fundamentals - here and in other facets. Case in point is bringing Bryant back in w/ 2 fouls when we're up 15 in the first half.

What if JBj had left?

I believe Crean recruits the Midwest too much, actually. The creepo vibe is too well seeded here due to proximity and exposure. The coastal kids only endure his visits a few times and few of their peers have any reference. Here, nobody wants to play for IU because Crean told them and their buddies he was up all night thinking about them.

. I'm hearing we're getting two players in light of Syracuse's situation. Bryant and ... transfer Ron Patterson! (dws)

Flip it around ... maybe the IU as "finalist" status for Bryant is a result of Crean being out the door?  I'm sure recruits share the fanbase's opinion of Crean's abilities towards big men.

First time posters get such a bad wrap.  Back on the Scout site I broke the Guy-Marc Michel news as about a "20th time poster".  Got killed for it too ...

Interesting choice of examples on ball-you-man at this link. Note the year and team ... https://tlorc.wordpress.com/2010/08/04/always-see-ball-you-man/

In prior articles, he claims to have a strong relationship with Crean. Playing devil's advocate, perhaps his familiarity with the family allows this kind of question?

$$$$$$   :(

It didn't make the podcast, but the topic of Crean's buyout (versus Painter) came up on Query & Schultz (WNDE 1260) last night.  Query stated, without equivocation, that Brad Stevens will be the next IU coach.  He claimed "intermediaries" close to management for both the Celtics and IU have discussed this and approached Stevens.  Now Query tends to make all issues black and white and he is not shy about running with less than concrete info, but I found this very interesting.

Sorry for the dumbs, but where would I find said audio?

The hair is very Calipari-esque ... scary.

"You remind me of Vic" is the new "you remind me of DWade"?

No link available, I'm too lazy to research at the moment, but I believe the issue centers around credit for online-only courses.  Oregon seems to be more strict on this aspect and they view Ray does not qualify for admission.
